any recommendation for curtain? preferably nearby shah alam, klang and pj

You can buy readymade from Jusco for example or go to Nagoya/Kamdar/or any other shops for tailormade.

Get ready to part with $$$ -tailormade are quite expensive.

@kswong77,
I've a pretty good curtain-maker to recommend but she doesn't come cheap. She believes in using high quality materials hence unless Ur willing to spend the $ there's no point my recommending

PS: Mom used her when she shifted into this new home and to-date our curtains are still very much in mint condition - it doesn't even look old [of course, we play a role in keeping it proper too!]. Another relative who shifted into her new home a year later decided to go with a cheaper option but she has since replaced her curtains twice / thrice.

Let me know if U want the contact who's based at DJ.

Hi , Try Homes Harmony compare to MACY & SSF which is quite expensive -
the Price is ok, reasonable for me... they still have ranges about Rm 20++ to Rm 30 ++ per Meter....
if u can waith , wait till they have Sales ..... got 20% discount .... beside that they also offer installation services which the charges is Reasonable ....

* there's also a lot of independent Curtain shops out there...

If u have a Tight budget , if not maybe u can try to buy the Materials & get those tailor to do for u ..... ,
Get the rail from D.IY shop & install urself...

Just get from Nagoya, tailor made but cheap...price comparable to ready made but looks ++ better. You just have to buy and install your own curtain rails/rods.


minolta

ikea.. maximum cost for tailor is rm35/piece.. lowest is rm9/piece..

depend on your style.. fabric can cost u from 5.90/meter up to 49.90..

other DIY

I think what's important is to ensure the material is of good quality

that correct.. sometimes. it hard to choose which fabric and what color to use....
i trust my judgment to my wife for this..

thanks all for ur input. am still looking at this. last weeken went to ikea, saw many curtain and blind, still yet to decide which to go for.

btw, i saw a shop selling wooden curtain rod and is RM9 per feet. how do u think the price?

how big it is?

not very sure. but think the diameter got 1 inch.

a normal window would span minimum of 4 feet = RM36.. do the rod come with bracket? i think it normal price...

do u want to install on ur own?

i bought mine at ikea.. span more than 70 feet at rm29.. but this one small one laa ekkeke

Go petaling street you can get very cheap there. Labour only RM10 per curtain... You can choose the curtain colour and quality...

Check out HomeDec, which is on till today.
There's an exhibitor called Jasmine/ Jasmin who is offering a package deal:
Curtains for living, bedroom 1 and bedroom 2 for RM1388. Dark curtains, with wooden rods thrown in and free padded bench.
I'll prob take it up next time.

Go to Jln TAR and Masjid India... tonnes of textiles stores there for every budget

u sure or not. 70 feet at RM29?

hehe.. can use the 5k as deposit to buy another house.
hehehe

@kswong77,
Depending on how much cloth you need for the entire house, RM5k seems like a pretty reasonable sum to me?! *shrugs*

I've loads of windows in my home so RM5k's definitely not sufficient, maybe just enough for the rooms *grins* But like I said in my earlier posts, we did spend quite a bit on curtains.

hi tinkerbel,

u r really invested in the curtain. compare to grills, which one is more expensive?

for me, RM5k+ is approximate to the grill price already. so, i feel not comfort on this price.

@kswong77,
Er... I live in a grill-less home

u can try madam low...she beliefs in quality and good looks..its like buying from the SSF like quality and design but cheaper...
if u wan pm me the details i will send her contacts to u...

Anyone has made their curtain from Acacia curtain shop from Serdang Raya?

The price that they quote me was reasonable but I am not sure about their workmanship.

Wah sing Interiors

lookin for curtain rails & curtains. Aside from SSF, Nagoya, anywhere else I can look? Thanks!

depend on which type of rails, if normal rail you can even get it from hardware shop. tehwah in ioi mall also custom made curtain but pricing wise, not too sure... macy is nice but more expensive...

Consult a curtain specialist and obtain everything from there. I've got a couple to recommend. See how much you're quoted for then get out there and seek alternatives.

IMO, curtain, sheer and blind do make a huge difference to a space. Just go for within the economical range - which is also subjective to each individual.

come to my showroom to get a quo lar....
give u big big discount

@IGax2000 : u sure you can give a fantastic price? Im looking for curtains for my condo, and so far im getting ridiculuous quotes from people, 4K+, 5K+, even 7K+ for just a condominium.

my windows are 3 units of (7 feet each, height about 7 feet) windows, balcony sliding door (11 feet length, height 7 feet).
one roman blind 5 feet length. The curtains are all day/night curtains.

Exhorbitant prices all around.

I got mine from Baagus. Single storey corner unit. 3 windows 4 ft w, 6 ft h. 2 windows 6ft w, 6ft h, side door 5ft w, 7ft h and kitchen 6 ft w, 5 ft h. Curtain lengths about 8 ft h. Double layer for all except kitchen. Kitchen using roller blind, 1 window using roman blind. Total, RM 3.6k.
